The Vital 2019 Conference brings in leaders from various health care facilities to take on the issues that impact Essential Hospitals.  This year’s conference runs from June 19th to the 21st   in Miami, Florida.  Essential Hospitals is the leading association champion for hospitals and health care systems dedicated to high quality care for all.  This quality of care includes the most vulnerable in our society.  Americas Essential Hospitals has over 300 members spread out over the United States.

Connect. Inspire. Lead.

The conference will connect health care professionals to learn more from each other on what issues impact them and share knowledge to overcome obstacles.  Stories will be shared to inspire one another to take action and accomplish the goals of Essential Hospitals and their members.  Leaders in health care will come together to capture knowledge and take this back with them to lead others to bring this high quality care.  By working together, a diverse population of health care professionals will strive to increase health care access and quality care for all.

SmileyAnswers Sponsorship

SmileyAnswers is a proud sponsor of the Essential Hospitals Vital 2019 conference.  We look forward to helping member hospitals measure patient feedback in real time to help improve the patient experience.  By using the four Smiley products and the Reporting system from HappyOrNot®, we will help hospitals discover and improve on their pain points and share their successes.  By discovering pain points in real time, hospitals are able to make quick adjustments to enhance how a patient experiences their organization.

Conference Attendees

For those attending, we invite you to leave feedback on the HappyOrNot® Smiley Touch and Smiley Terminals that will be present at the conference.  You will be able to see how HappyOrNot® works to provide real time feedback to improve a patient/employee experience.
